Visiting my wife’s family in West Cork Ireland and went to the best farmer’s market I’ve ever experienced. Especially amazing considering it was in a little old town like Skibbereen.
Always wanted a pig sticker but this sash chisel is gonna be a workhorse, and this big old cooper’s shave should be fun. The lignum vitae mallet has some serious heft for it’s size.
Paid +\- €10 each.
Very cool to see joiner shops still very active. Almost all the new doors(interior included) I saw in West Cork had exposed through tenon joinery. In Dublin now and it doesn’t seem to be the case.
I’m kinda sold on the Emerald Isle. Wife and daughter have Irish passports so hopefully make it back often now that the girl is traveling age, bout to turn 3.
